The series digs for remains of some of the earliest Amazonians, seeking clues to how villages grew, and how the jungle itself was tamed for agriculture on a massive scale.
New discoveries are revealing a forgotten civilisation that once thrived in the jungles of the Amazon. But what happened to it? Are there clues to what caused the collapse in today’s battles against deforestation, gold mining, and disease? And do the surviving Amazonian people face a similar fate?
